It is with great honour and pleasure that we present “A Life Well Lived: The Remarkable Cellar of Melina & N.K. Yong.”
Melina and the late Dr. N.K. Yong, pioneering wine collectors from Singapore, are names synonymous with passion, knowledge, and generosity in the world of fine wine. Over the course of more than forty years, their shared love for exceptional wine—and the fine food to accompany it—has culminated in a truly extraordinary cellar. This collection reflects their inquisitive minds and deep enthusiasm for exploring the people, places, and stories behind each bottle.
Long before many of these wines became iconic, Melina and N.K. were visiting Bordeaux and Burgundy, choosing bottles that resonated with their discerning palates. Their journey continued and their cellar grew to include the remarkable wines of Alsace, Germany (so great with Cantonese cuisine), Spain, Italy, and the New World. This cellar is a rich tapestry of regions and styles, with each wine selected for its significance, with a specific moment or memory in mind.
Those who speak of Melina and N.K. often mention their boundless generosity, humour, and zest for life. Many of us hold wonderful memories of being welcomed into their home, enjoying an eclectic array of wines from their cellar while savouring Melina’s stunning cooking. Their generosity extended far beyond their table, fostering a new generation of inquisitive wine lovers and collectors, both in Singapore and around the world.
In early 2023, we had the privilege of supporting Melina in hosting a charity auction, a tradition she and N.K. regularly organized before his passing. The event was a testament to the love and respect they inspired, with winemakers, family, and friends gathering in a celebration that was joyful and deeply moving. It underscored the profound impact Melina and N.K. have had on the wine community, both locally and globally.
We could not be prouder to present this sale, which works as a fitting new chapter in our journey at the Henderson Building. There could be no more appropriate tribute than to honour one of Asia’s most iconic and trailblazing collectors. It is our hope that the wines from this remarkable cellar will find new homes with those who, like Melina and N.K., appreciate and celebrate the beauty of these treasured bottles.
佳士得深感榮幸能與N.K. Yong醫生伉儷合作，在 The Henderson 全新亞太區總部呈獻其卓越窖藏，開啟佳士得嶄新篇章。我們希望將這些 備受珍視的佳釀，呈獻給同Melina和N.K.一樣熱愛和欣賞出眾名酒的藏 家，為它們找到新家。

For my late husband NK and me, wine has always been about people, and I cherish the memories it has given us.
Our journey with wine, spanning over four decades, led us to many wineries around the world. The friends we made along the way are truly priceless, bringing us immense joy and delight!
NK often emphasized that wine is more about sharing. One of his favourite quote was from Sir Winston Churchill, who said “We make a living from what we get, but we make a life by what we give”. This is why, over the decades, we took great pleasure hosting wine dinners to raise funds for charity, a privilege for us to give back to the community. God always provide ways to humble us.
With the same conviction and hope, this collection has been put up for auction. We intend to use part of the proceeds to give back to those who are less fortunate.
We invite you to partner us in this journey.
A toast to all with a love for wine: may you too create many joyful and treasured memories.

CONDITIONS OF SALE • BUYING AT CHRISTIE’S
CONDITIONSOFSALE
These Conditions of Sale and the Important Notices and Explanation of Cataloguing Practice set out the terms on which we offer the lots listed in this catalogue for sale. By registering to bid and/or by bidding at auction you agree to these terms, so you should read them carefully before doing so. You will find a glossary at the end explaining the meaning of the words and expressions coloured in bold
Unless we own a lot ( symbol), Christie’s acts as agent for the seller.
A BEFORETHESALE
1 DESCRIPTIONOFLOTS
(a) Certain words used in the catalogue description have special meanings. You can find details of these on the page headed “Important Notices and Explanation of Cataloguing Practice” which forms part of these terms. You can find a key to the Symbols found next to certain catalogue entries under the section of the catalogue called “Symbols Used in this Catalogue”.
(b) Our description of any lot in the catalogue, any condition report and any other statement made by us (whether orally or in writing) about any lot, including about its nature or condition, artist, period, materials, approximate dimensions or provenance are our opinion and not to be relied upon as a statement of fact. We do not carry out in-depth research of the sort carried out by professional historians and scholars. All dimensions and weights are approximate only.
2 OURRESPONSIBILITYFOROURDESCRIPTIONOFLOTS
We do not provide any guarantee in relation to the nature of a lot apart from our authenticity warranty contained in paragraph E2 and to the extent provided in paragraph I below.
3 CONDITION
(a) The condition of lots sold in our auctions can vary widely due to factors such as age, previous damage, restoration, repair and wear and tear. Their nature means that they will rarely be in perfect condition Lots are sold “as is” in the condition they are in at the time of the sale, without any representation or warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to condition by Christie’s or by the seller.
(b) Any reference to condition in a catalogue entry or in a condition report will not amount to a full description of condition, and images may not show a lot clearly. Colours and shades may look different in print or on screen to how they look on physical inspection. Condition reports may be available to help you evaluate the condition of a lot Condition reports are provided free of charge as a convenience to our buyers and are for guidance only. They offer our opinion but they may not refer to all faults, inherent defects, restoration, alteration or adaptation because our staff are not professional restorers or conservators. For that reason they are not an alternative to examining a lot in person or taking your own professional advice. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have requested, received and considered any condition report.
4 VIEWINGLOTSPRE-AUCTION
(a) If you are planning to bid on a lot, you should inspect it personally or through a knowledgeable representative before you make a bid to make sure that you accept the description and its condition. We recommend you get your own advice from a restorer or other professional adviser.
(b) Pre-auction viewings are open to the public free of charge. Our specialists may be available to answer questions at pre-auction viewings or by appointment.
5 ESTIMATES
Estimates are based on the condition, rarity, quality and provenance of the lots and on prices recently paid at auction for similar property. Estimates can change. Neither you, nor anyone else, may rely on any estimates as a prediction or guarantee of the actual selling price of a lot or its value for any other purpose. Estimates do not include the buyer’s premium or any applicable taxes. Estimates may be shown in different currencies from that of the saleroom for guidance only. The rate of exchange used in our printed catalogues is fixed at the latest practical date prior to the printing of the catalogue and may have changed by the time of our sale.
6 WITHDRAWAL
Christie’s may, at its option, withdraw any lot at any time prior to or during the sale of the lot. Christie’s has no liability to you for any decision to withdraw.
7 JEWELLERY
(a) Coloured gemstones (such as rubies, sapphires and emeralds) may have been treated to improve their look, through methods such as heating and oiling. These methods are accepted by the international jewellery trade but may make the gemstone less strong and/or require special care over time.
(b) It will not be apparent to us whether a diamond is naturally or synthetically formed unless it has been tested by a gemmological laboratory. Where the diamond has been tested, a gemmological report will be available.
(c) All types of gemstones may have been improved by some method. You may request a gemmological report for any item
which does not have a report if the request is made to us at least three weeks before the date of the auction and you pay the fee for the report.
(d) Certain weights in the catalogue description are provided for guidance purposes only as they have been estimated through measurement and, as such, should not be relied upon as exact.
(e) We do not obtain a gemmological report for every gemstone sold in our auctions. Where we do get gemmological reports from internationally accepted gemmological laboratories, such reports will be described in the catalogue. Reports from American gemmological laboratories will describe any improvement or treatment to the gemstone. Reports from European gemmological laboratories will describe any improvement or treatment only if we request that they do so, but will confirm when no improvement or treatment has been made. Because of differences in approach and technology, laboratories may not agree whether a particular gemstone has been treated, the amount of treatment or whether treatment is permanent. The gemmological laboratories will only report on the improvements or treatments known to the laboratories at the date of the report. We do not guarantee nor are we responsible for any report or certificate from a gemmological laboratory that may accompany a lot
(f) For jewellery sales, estimates are based on the information in any gemmological report or, if no report is available, assume that the gemstones may have been treated or enhanced.
8 WATCHES&CLOCKS
(a) Almost all clocks and watches are repaired in their lifetime and may include parts which are not original. We do not give a warranty that any individual component part of any watch or clock is authentic. Watchbands described as “associated” are not part of the original watch and may not be authentic. Clocks may be sold without pendulums, weights or keys.
(b) As collectors’ watches and clocks often have very fine and complex mechanisms, a general service, change of battery or further repair work may be necessary, for which you are responsible. We do not give a warranty that any watch or clock is in good working order. Certificates are not available unless described in the catalogue.
(c) Most watches have been opened to find out the type and quality of movement. For that reason, watches with water resistant cases may not be waterproof and we recommend you have them checked by a competent watchmaker before use.
Important information about the sale, transport and shipping of watches and watchbands can be found in paragraph H2(g).

(a) Phone Bids
Your request for this service must be made no later than 24 hours prior to the auction and may also be made on the Christie’s WeChat Mini Program. We will accept bids by telephone for lots only if our staff are available to take the bids. Telephone bids cannot be accepted for lots estimated below HK$30,000. If you need to bid in a language other than in English, you must arrange this well before the auction. We may record telephone bids. By bidding on the telephone, you are agreeing to us recording your conversations. You also agree that your telephone bids are governed by these Conditions of Sale.

You can find a Written Bid Form at any Christie’s office or by choosing the sale and viewing the lots online at www. christies.com or on the Christie’s WeChat Mini Program. We must receive your completed Written Bid at least 24 hours before the auction. Bids must be placed in the currency of the saleroom. The auctioneer will take reasonable steps to carry out written bids at the lowest possible price, taking into account the reserve. If you make a written bid on a lot which does not have a reserve and there is no higher bid than yours, we will bid on your behalf at around 50% of the low estimate or, if lower, the amount of your bid. If we receive written bids on a lot for identical amounts, and at the auction these are the highest bids on the lot, we will sell the lot to the bidder whose written bid we received first.
C CONDUCTINGTHESALE
1 WHOCANENTERTHEAUCTION
We may, at our option, refuse admission to our premises or decline to permit participation in any auction or to reject any bid.
2 RESERVES
Unless otherwise indicated, all lots are subject to a reserve. We identify lots that are offered without a reserve with the symbol • next to the lot number. The reserve cannot be more than the lot’s low estimate, unless the lot is subject to a third party guarantee and the irrevocable bid exceeds the printed low estimate. In that case, the reserve will be set at the amount of the irrevocable bid. Lots which are subject to a third party guarantee arrangement are identified in the catalogue with the symbol º♦
3 AUCTIONEER’SDISCRETION
The auctioneer can at his sole option:
(a) refuse any bid;
(b) move the bidding backwards or forwards in any way he or she may decide, or change the order of the lots;
(c) withdraw any lot;
(d) divide any lot or combine any two or more lots;
(e) reopen or continue the bidding even after the hammer has fallen; and
(f) in the case of error or dispute related to bidding and whether during or after the auction, continue the bidding, determine the successful bidder, cancel the sale of the lot, or reoffer and resell any lot. If you believe that the auctioneer has accepted the successful bid in error, you must provide a written notice detailing your claim within 3 business days of the date of the auction. The auctioneer will consider such claim in good faith. If the auctioneer, in the exercise of his or her discretion under this paragraph, decides after the auction is complete, to cancel the sale of a lot, or reoffer and resell a lot, he or she will notify the successful bidder no later than by the end of the 7th calendar day following the date of the auction. The auctioneer’s decision in exercise of this discretion is final. This paragraph does not in
any way prejudice Christie's ability to cancel the sale of a lot under any other applicable provision of these Conditions of Sale, including the rights of cancellation set forth in sections B(3), E(2)(i), F(4) and J(1).
4 BIDDING
The auctioneer accepts bids from: (a) bidders in the saleroom; (b) telephonebidders,andinternetbiddersthroughChristie’sLIVE™ (as shown above in Section B6); and (c) written bids (also known as absentee bids or commission bids) left with us by a bidder before the auction.
5 BIDDINGONBEHALFOFTHESELLER
The auctioneer may, at his or her sole option, bid on behalf of the seller up to but not including the amount of the reserve either by making consecutive bids or by making bids in response to other bidders. The auctioneer will not identify these as bids made on behalf of the seller and will not make any bid on behalf of the seller at or above the reserve. If lots are offered without reserve, the auctioneer will generally decide to open the bidding at 50% of the low estimate for the lot. If no bid is made at that level, the auctioneer may decide to go backwards at his or her sole option until a bid is made, and then continue up from that amount. In the event that there are no bids on a lot, the auctioneer may deem such lot unsold.
6 BIDINCREMENTS
Bidding generally starts below the low estimate and increases in steps (bid increments). The auctioneer will decide at his or her sole option where the bidding should start and the bid increments. The usual bid increments are shown for guidance only at https://www. christies.com/en/help/buying-guide-important-information/ financial-information
7 CURRENCYCONVERTER
The saleroom video screens, Christie’s LIVE™ and Christie’s website may show bids in some other major currencies from that of the saleroom. Any conversion is for guidance only and we cannot be bound by any rate of exchange used by Christie’s. Christie’s is not responsible for any error (human or otherwise), omission or breakdown in providing these services.
8 SUCCESSFULBIDS
Unless the auctioneer decides to use his or her discretion as set out in paragraph C3 above, when the auctioneer’s hammer strikes, we have accepted the last bid. This means a contract for sale has been formed between the seller and the successful bidder. We will issue an invoice only to the registered bidder who made the successful bid. While we send out invoices by post and/or email after the auction, we do not accept responsibility for telling you whether or not your bid was successful. If you have bid by written bid, you should contact us by telephone or in person as soon as possible after the auction to get details of the outcome of your bid to avoid having to pay unnecessary storage charges.
9 LOCALBIDDINGLAWS
You agree that when bidding in any of our sales that you will strictly comply with all local laws and regulations in force at the time of the sale for the relevant sale site.
D THEBUYER'SPREMIUM,TAXES
1 THEBUYER'SPREMIUM
In addition to the hammer price, the successful bidder agrees to pay us a buyer’s premium on the hammer price of each lot sold. On all lots we charge 26% of the hammer price up to and including HK$7,500,000, 21% on that part of the hammer price over HK$7,500,000 and up to and including HK$50,000,000, and 15% of that part of the hammer price above HK$50,000,000. Exception for wine: the buyer’s premium for wine is 25% of the hammer price
2 TAXES
The successful bidder is responsible for any applicable tax including any VAT, sales or compensating use tax or equivalent tax wherever such taxes may arise on the hammer price and the buyer’s premium It is the buyer’s responsibility to ascertain and pay all taxes due. In all circumstances Hong Kong law takes precedence. Christie’s recommends you obtain your own independent tax advice. For lots Christie’s ships to the United States, a state sales or use tax may be due on the hammer price, buyer’s premium and/or any other charges related to the lot, regardless of the nationality or citizenship of the purchaser. Christie’s will collect sales tax where legally required. The applicable sales tax rate will be determined based upon the state, county, or locale to which the lot will be shipped. Successful bidders claiming an exemption from sales tax must provide appropriate documentation to Christie’s prior to the release of the lot. For shipments to those states for which Christie’s is not required to collect sales tax, a successful bidder may be required to remit use tax to that state’s taxing authorities. Christie's recommends you obtain your own independent tax advice with further questions.
E WARRANTIES
1 SELLER’SWARRANTIES
For each lot, the seller gives a warranty that the seller:
(a) is the owner of the lot or a joint owner of the lot acting with the permission of the other co-owners or, if the seller is not the owner or a joint owner of the lot, has the permission of the owner to sell the lot, or the right to do so in law; and (b) has the right to transfer ownership of the lot to the buyer without any restrictions or claims by anyone else. If either of the above warranties are incorrect, the seller shall not have to pay more than the purchase price (as defined in paragraph F1(a) below) paid by you to us. The seller will not
be responsible to you for any reason for loss of profits or business, expected savings, loss of opportunity or interest, costs, damages, other damages or expenses. The seller gives no warranty in relation to any lot other than as set out above and, as far as the seller is allowed by law, all warranties from the seller to you, and all other obligations upon the seller which may be added to this agreement by law, are excluded.
2 OURAUTHENTICITYWARRANTY
We warrant, subject to the terms below, that the lots in our sales are authentic (our “authenticity warranty”). If, within 5 years of the date of the auction, you give notice to us that your lot is not authentic, subject to the terms below, we will refund the purchase price paid by you. The meaning of authentic can be found in the glossary at the end of these Conditions of Sale. The terms of the authenticity warranty are as follows:
(a) It will be honoured for claims notified within a period of 5 years from the date of the auction. After such time, we will not be obligated to honour the authenticity warranty
(b) It is given only for information shown in UPPERCASE type in the first line of the catalogue description (the “Heading”). It does not apply to any information other than in the Heading, even if shown in UPPERCASE type
(c) The authenticity warranty does not apply to any Heading or part of a Heading which is qualified Qualified means limited by a clarification in a lot’s catalogue description or by the use in a Heading of one of the terms listed in the section titled Qualified Headings on the page of the catalogue headed “Important Notices and Explanation of Cataloguing Practice”. For example, use of the term “ATTRIBUTED TO…..” in a Heading means that the lot is in Christie’s opinion probably a work by the named artist but no warranty is provided that the lot is the work of the named artist. Please read the full list of Qualified Headings and a lot’s full catalogue description before bidding.
(d) The authenticity warranty applies to the Heading as amended by any saleroom notice
(e) The authenticity warranty does not apply where scholarship has developed since the auction leading to a change in generally accepted opinion. Further it does not apply if the Heading either matched the generally accepted opinion of experts at the date of the sale or drew attention to any conflict of opinion.
(f) The authenticity warranty does not apply if the lot can only be shown not to be authentic by a scientific process which, on the date we published the catalogue, was not available or generally accepted for use, or which was unreasonably expensive or impractical, or which was likely to have damaged the lot
(g) The benefit of the authenticity warranty is only available to the original buyer shown on the invoice for the lot issued at the time of the sale and only if, on the date of the notice of claim, the original buyer is the full owner of the lot and the lot is free from any claim, interest or restriction by anyone else. The benefit of this authenticity warranty may not be transferred to anyone else.
(h) In order to claim under the authenticity warranty you must:
(i) give us written notice of your claim within 5 years of the date of the auction. We may require full details and supporting evidence of any such claim;
(ii) at Christie’s option, we may require you to provide the written opinions of two recognized experts in the field of the lot mutually agreed by you and us in advance confirming that the lot is not authentic. If we have any doubts, we reserve the right to obtain additional opinions at our expense; and
(iii) return the lot at your expense to the saleroom from which you bought it in the condition it was in at the time of sale.
(i) Your only right under this authenticity warranty is to cancel the sale and receive a refund of the purchase price paid by you to us. We will not, in any circumstances, be required to pay you more than the purchase price nor will we be liable for any loss of profits or business, loss of opportunity or value, expected savings or interest, costs, damages, other damages or expenses.
(j) Books. Where the lot is a book, we give an additional warranty for 14 days from the date of the sale that if on collation any lot is defective in text or illustration, we will refund your purchase price, subject to the following terms:
(i) This additional warranty does not apply to:
(A) the absence of blanks, half titles, tissue guards or advertisements, damage in respect of bindings, stains, spotting, marginal tears or other defects not affecting completeness of the text or illustration;
(B) drawings, autographs, letters or manuscripts, signed photographs, music, atlases, maps or periodicals;
(C) books not identified by title;
(D) lots sold without a printed estimate;
(E) books which are described in the catalogue as sold not subject to return; or
(F) defects stated in any condition report or announced at the time of sale.
(ii) To make a claim under this paragraph you must give written details of the defect and return the lot to the sale room at which you bought it in the same condition as at the time of sale, within 14 days of the date of the sale.
(k) South East Asian Modern and Contemporary Art and Chinese Calligraphy and Painting.
In these categories, the authenticity warranty does not apply because current scholarship does not permit the making of definitive statements. Christie’s does, however, agree to cancel a sale in either of these two categories of art where it has been proven the lot is a forgery. Christie’s will refund to the original buyer the purchase price in accordance with the terms of Christie’s authenticity warranty, provided that the original
buyer gives us written notice of the claim within twelve (12) months of the date of the auction. We may require full details and supporting evidence of any such claim. Such evidence must be satisfactory to us that the lot is a forgery in accordance with paragraph E2(h)(ii) above and the lot must be returned to us in accordance with E2h(iii) above. Paragraphs E2(b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g) and (i) also apply to a claim under these categories.
(l) Chinese, Japanese and Korean artefacts (excluding Chinese, Japanese and Korean calligraphy, paintings, prints, drawings and jewellery).
In these categories, paragraph E2 (b) – (e) above shall be amended so that where no maker or artist is identified, the authenticity warranty is given not only for the Heading but also for information regarding date or period shown in UPPERCASE type in the second line of the catalogue description (the “Subheading”). Accordingly, all references to the Heading in paragraph E2 (b) – (e) above shall be read as references to both the Heading and the Subheading (m) Guarantee in relation to Wines and Spirits (i) Subject to the obligations accepted by Christie’s under this authenticity warranty, none of the seller, Christie’s, its employees or agents is responsible for the correctness of any statement as to the authorship, origin, date, age, attribution, genuineness or provenance of any lot, for any other error of description or for any fault or defect in any lot. Further, no warranty whatsoever is given by the seller, Christie’s, its employees or agents in respect of any lot and any express or implied condition or warranty is hereby excluded;
(ii) If, (1) within twenty-one days of the date of the auction, Christie’s has received notice in writing from the buyer of any lot that in his view the lot was at the date of the auction short or ullaged or that any statement of opinion in the catalogue was not well founded, (2) within fourteen days of such notice, Christie’s has the lot in its possession in the same condition as at the date of the auction and (3) within a reasonable time thereafter, the buyer satisfies Christie’s that the lot was as notified in writing by the buyer (as above) and that the buyer is able to transfer a good and marketable title to the lot free from any lien or encumbrance, Christie’s will set aside the sale and refund to the buyer any amount paid by the buyer in respect of the lot provided that the buyer shall have no rights under this authenticity warranty if: (i) the defect is mentioned in the catalogue; or (ii) the catalogue description at the date of the auction was in accordance with the then generally accepted opinion of scholars or experts or fairly indicated there to be a conflict of such opinion; or (iii) it can be established that the lot was as notified in writing by the buyer (as above) only by means of a scientific process not generally accepted for use until after the publication of the catalogue or by means of a process which at the date of the auction was unreasonably expensive or impracticable or likely to have caused damage to the lot. (See also notes on ullages and corks);
(iii) The buyer shall not be entitled to claim under this authenticity warranty for more than the amount paid by him for the lot and in particular shall have no claim for any loss, consequential loss or damage whether direct or indirect suffered by him;
(iv) The benefit of this authenticity warranty shall not be assignable and shall rest solely and exclusively in the buyer who shall be the person to whom the original invoice was made out by Christie’s in respect of the lot when sold and who has since the sale retained uninterrupted, unencumbered ownership thereof.

(b) At the end of the 30th day following the date of the auction or, if earlier, the date the lot is taken into care by a third party warehouse unless we have agreed otherwise with you in writing.
4 WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU DO NOT PAY
(a) If you fail to pay us the purchase price in full by the due date, we will be entitled to do one or more of the following (as well as enforce our rights under paragraph F5 and any other rights or remedies we have by law):
(i) to charge interest from the due date at a rate of 7% a year above the 3-month HIBOR rate from time to time on the unpaid amount due;
(ii) we can cancel the sale of the lot. If we do this, we may sell the lot again, publically or privately on such terms we shall think necessary or appropriate, in which case you must pay us any shortfall between the purchase price and the proceeds from the resale. You must also pay all costs, expenses, losses, damages and legal fees we have to pay or may suffer and any shortfall in the seller’s commission on the resale;
(iii) we can pay the seller an amount up to the net proceeds payable in respect of the amount bid by your default in which case you acknowledge and understand that Christie’s will have all of the rights of the seller to pursue
you for such amounts;

You will be deemed to have granted such security to us and we may retain such property as collateral security for your obligations to us; and (ix) we can take any other action we see necessary or appropriate.
(b) If you owe money to us or to another Christie’s Group company, we can use any amount you do pay, including any deposit or other part-payment you have made to us, or which we owe you, to pay off any amount you owe to us or another Christie’s Group company for any transaction.
(c) If you make payment in full after the due date, and we choose to accept such payment we may charge you storage and transport costs from the date that is 31 calendar days following the auction in accordance with paragraphs G4(a) and (b). In such circumstances paragraph G4(d) shall apply.
5 KEEPING YOUR PROPERTY
If you owe money to us or to another Christie’s Group company, as well as the rights set out in F4 above, we can use or deal with any of your property we hold or which is held by another Christie’s Group company in any way we are allowed to by law. We will only release your property to you after you pay us or the relevant Christie’s Group company in full for what you owe. However, if we choose, we can also sell your property in any way we think appropriate. We will use the proceeds of the sale against any amounts you owe us and we will pay any amount left from that sale to you. If there is a shortfall, you must pay us any difference between the amount we have received from the sale and the amount you owe us.
G COLLECTION AND STORAGE
1. We ask that you collect purchased lots promptly following the auction (but note that you may not collect any lot until you have made full and clear payment of all amounts due to us)
2. For information on collecting lots, please contact Christie’s Post-Sale Services Department on +852 2760 1766 / Email: postsaleasia@christies.com.
3. If you do not collect any lot promptly following the auction we can, at our option, remove the lot to another Christie’s location or an affiliate or third party warehouse.

(b) we can, at our option, move the lot to or within an affiliate or third party warehouse and we or they may charge you transport costs and administrative fees for doing so.
(c) we may sell the lot in any commercially reasonable way we think appropriate.
(d) the storage terms which can be found at www.christies. com/storage shall apply.
(e) nothing in this paragraph is intended to limit our rights under paragraph F4.
H TRANSPORT AND SHIPPING
1 TRANSPORT AND SHIPPING
We will enclose a transport and shipping form with each invoice sent to you. You must make all transport and shipping arrangements. However, we can arrange to pack, transport and ship your property if you ask us to and pay the costs of doing so. We recommend that you ask us for an estimate, especially for any large items or items of high value that need professional packing before you bid. We may also suggest other handlers, packers, transporters or experts if you ask us to do so.
For more information, please contact Christie’s Post-Sale Services Department on +852 2760 1766 or email to postsaleasia@christies. com. We will take reasonable care when we are handling, packing, transporting and shipping a lot. However, if we recommend another company for any of these purposes, we are not responsible for their acts, failure to act or neglect.
2 EXPORT AND IMPORT
Any lot sold at auction may be affected by laws on exports from the country in which it is sold and the import restrictions of other countries. Many countries require a declaration of export for property leaving the country and/or an import declaration on entry of property into the country. Local laws may prevent you from importing a lot or may prevent you selling a lot in the country you import it into.
We will not be obliged to cancel your purchase and refund the purchase price if your lot may not be exported, imported or it is seized for any reason by a government authority. It is your responsibility to determine and satisfy the requirements of any applicable laws or regulations relating to the export or import of any lot you purchase.
(a) You alone are responsible for getting advice about and meeting
the requirements of any laws or regulations which apply to exporting or importing any lot prior to bidding. If you are refused a licence or there is a delay in getting one, you must still pay us in full for the lot. We may be able to help you apply for the appropriate licences if you ask us to and pay our fee for doing so. However, we cannot guarantee that you will get one. For more information, please contact Christie’s Post-Sale Services Department on +852 2760 1766 or email to postsaleasia@christies.com.
(b) You alone are responsible for any applicable taxes, tariffs or other government-imposed charges relating to the export or import of the lot. If Christie’s exports or imports the lot on your behalf, and if Christie’s pays these applicable taxes, tariffs or other government-imposed charges, you agree to refund that amount to Christie’s.
If you are the successful purchaser of a lot of (i) liquor or cordials, including Irish and Scotch whiskeys, from Germany, Ireland, Italy, Spain or the U.K. or (ii) non-carbonated wine, containing less than 14% alcohol and in bottles smaller than 2 litres, from France, Germany, Spain or the U.K. and you plan to import it into the US, you are solely responsible for and must pay any relevant tariff for the lot at the time of importation. For more information, please contact Christie's Post-Sale service Department on +852 2760 1766/ Email: postsaleasia@christies. com.
(c) Lots made of protected species
Lots made of or including (regardless of the percentage) endangered and other protected species of wildlife are marked with the symbol in the catalogue.
This material includes, among other things, ivory, tortoiseshell, whalebone, certain species of coral, Brazilian rosewood, crocodile, alligator and ostrich skins. You should check the relevant customs laws and regulations prior to purchasing any lot containing wildlife material if you plan to export the lot from the country in which the lot is sold and import it into another country as a licence may be required. In some cases, the lot can only be shipped with an independent scientific confirmation of species and/or age and you will need to obtain these at your own cost. Several countries have imposed restrictions on dealing in elephant ivory, ranging from a total ban on importing African elephant ivory in the United States to importing, exporting and selling under strict measures in other countries. Lots made of or including elephant ivory material are marked with the symbol ∝ and are offered with the benefit of being registered as “exempt” in accordance with the UK Ivory Act. Handbags containing endangered or protected species material are marked with the symbol ≈ or ≡ and further information can be found in paragraph H2(h) below.
We will not be obliged to cancel your purchase and refund the purchase price if your lot may not be exported, imported or it is seized for any reason by a government authority. It is your responsibility to determine and satisfy the requirements of any applicable laws or regulations relating to the export or import of property containing such protected or regulated material.
(d) US import ban on African elephant ivory
The USA prohibits the import of ivory from the African elephant. Any lot containing elephant ivory or other wildlife material that could be easily confused with elephant ivory (for example, mammoth ivory, walrus ivory, helmeted hornbill ivory) can only be imported into the US with results of a rigorous scientific test acceptable to Fish & Wildlife, which confirms that the material is not African elephant ivory. Where we have conducted such rigorous scientific testing on a lot prior to sale, we will make this clear in the lot description. In all other cases, we cannot confirm whether a lot contains African elephant ivory, and you will buy that lot at your own risk and be responsible for any scientific test or other reports required for import into the USA at your own cost. If such scientific test is inconclusive or confirms the material is from the African elephant, we will not be obliged to cancel your purchase and refund the purchase price
(e) Lots of Iranian origin
As a convenience to buyers, Christie’s indicates under the title of a lot if the lot originates from Iran (Persia). Some countries prohibit or restrict the purchase and/or import of Iranian-origin property. It is your responsibility to ensure you do not bid on or import a lot in contravention of any sanctions, trade embargoes or other laws that apply to you. For example, the USA prohibits dealings in and import of Iranian-origin “works of conventional craftsmanship” (such as carpets, textiles, decorative objects, and scientific instruments) without an appropriate licence. Christie’s has a general OFAC licence which, subject to compliance with certain conditions, may enable a buyer to import this type of lot into the USA. If you use Christie’s general OFAC licence for this purpose, you agree to comply with the licence conditions and provide Christie’s with all relevant information. You also acknowledge that Christie’s will disclose your personal information and your use of the licence to OFAC.
(f) Gold
Gold of less than 18ct does not qualify in all countries as “gold” and may be refused import into those countries as “gold”.
(g) Watches
Many of the watches offered for sale in this catalogue are pictured with straps made of endangered or protected animal materials such as alligator or crocodile. These lots are marked with the symbol ψ in the catalogue. These endangered species straps are shown for display purposes only and are not for sale. Christie’s will remove and retain the strap prior to shipment from the sale site. At some sale sites, Christie’s may, at its discretion, make the displayed endangered species strap available to the buyer of the lot free of charge if collected in person from the sale site within 1 year of the date of the sale.
Please check with the department for details on a particular lot (h) Handbags
A lot marked with the symbol ≈ includes endangered or protected species material and is subject to CITES regulations. This lot may only be shipped to addresses within Hong Kong SAR or collected from our Hong Kong saleroom. It will not be possible to obtain a CITES export permit to ship these bags to addresses outside Hong Kong SAR post-sale.
A lot with the symbol ≡ is subject to CITES export/import restrictions and will require export/import permits to ship the bag outside Hong Kong SAR post sale. Buyers are responsible for obtaining and paying for the necessary permits. Please contact the department for further information.
For all symbols and other markings referred to in paragraph H2, please note that lots are marked as a convenience to you, but we do not accept liability for errors or for failing to mark lots

IMPORTANT NOTICES AND EXPLANATION OF CATALOGUING PRACTICE
IMPORTANT NOTICES
CHRISTIE’S INTEREST IN PROPERTY CONSIGNED FOR AUCTION
Δ Property in which Christie’s has an ownership or financial interest
From time to time, Christie’s may offer a lot in which Christie’s has an ownership interest or a financial interest. Such lot is identified with the symbol Δ in the next to its lot number.
º Minimum Price Guarantees
On occasion, Christie’s has a direct financial interest in the outcome of the sale of certain lots consigned for sale. This will usually be where it has guaranteed to the Seller that whatever the outcome of the auction, the Seller will receive a minimum sale price for the lot. This is known as a minimum price guarantee. Where Christie’s holds such financial interest we identify such lots with the symbol º next to the lot number.
º♦ Third Party Guarantees/Irrevocable bids
Where Christie’s has provided a Minimum Price Guarantee, it is at risk of making a loss, which can be significant if the lot fails to sell. Christie’s therefore sometimes chooses to share that risk with a third party who agrees prior to the auction to place an irrevocable written bid on the lot. If there are no other higher bids, the third party commits to buy the lot at the level of their irrevocable written bid. In doing so, the third party takes on all or part of the risk of the lot not being sold. Lots which are subject to a third party guarantee arrangement are identified in the catalogue with the symbol º♦ Christie's compensates the third party in exchange for accepting this risk provided that the third party is not the successful bidder. The remuneration to the third party may either be based on a fixed fee or an amount calculated against the final hammer price
The third party may also bid for the lot above the irrevocable written bid. Where the third party is the successful bidder, the third party is required to pay the hammer price and the buyer’s premium in full.
Third party guarantors are required by us to disclose to anyone they are advising their financial interest in any lots they are guaranteeing. However, for the avoidance of any doubt, if you are advised by or bidding through an agent on a lot identified as being subject to a third party guarantee you should always ask your agent to confirm whether or not he or she has a financial interest in relation to the lot
Property in which Christie’s has an interest and Third Party Guarantee/Irrevocable bid
Where Christie's has a financial interest in a lot and the lot fails
to sell, Christie's is at risk of making a loss. As such, Christie's may choose to share that risk with a third party whereby the third party contractually agrees, prior to the auction, to place an irrevocable written bid on the lot. Such lot is identified in the catalogue with the symbol
Where the third party is the successful bidder on the lot, he or she will not receive compensation in exchange for accepting this risk. If the third party is not the successful bidder, Christie's may compensate the third party. The third party is required by us to disclose to anyone he or she is advising of his or her financial interest in any lot in which Christie's has a financial interest. If you are advised by or bidding through an agent on a lot in which Christie's has a financial interest that is subject to a contractual written bid, you should always ask your agent to confirm whether or not he or she has a financial interest in relation to the lot
Bidding by parties with an interest
When a party with a direct or indirect interest in the lot who may have knowledge of the lot’s reserve or other material information may be bidding on the lot, we will mark the lot with this symbol ¤. This interest can include beneficiaries of an estate that consigned the lot or a joint owner of a lot. Any interested party that successfully bids on a lot must comply with Christie’s Conditions of Sale, including paying the lot’s full buyer’s premium plus applicable taxes.
Post-catalogue notifications
If Christie’s enters into an arrangement or becomes aware of bidding that would have required a catalogue symbol, we will notify you by updating christies.com with the relevant information (time permitting) or otherwise by a pre-sale or pre-lot announcement.
Other Arrangements
Christie’s may enter into other arrangements not involving bids. These include arrangements where Christie’s has advanced money to consignors or prospective purchasers or where Christie’s has shared the risk of a guarantee with a partner without the partner being required to place an irrevocable written bid or otherwise participating in the bidding on the lot. Because such arrangements are unrelated to the bidding process they are not marked with a symbol in the catalogue. Please see http://www.christies.com/financial-interest/ for a more detailed explanation of minimum price guarantees and third party financing arrangements.
EXPLANATION
OF CATALOGUING PRACTICE
Terms used in a catalogue or lot description have the meanings ascribed to them below. Please note that all statements in a catalogue
or lot description as to authorship, period, reign or dynasty are made subject to the provisions of the Conditions of Sale, including the authenticity warranty. Our use of these expressions does not take account of the condition of the lot or of the extent of any restoration. Buyers are advised to inspect the property themselves. Written condition reports are usually available on request.
A term and its definition listed under ‘Qualified Headings’ is a qualified statement as to authorship, period, reign or dynasty. While the use of this term is based upon careful study and represents the opinion of specialists, Christie’s and the consignor assume no risk, liability and responsibility for the authenticity of authorship or of the lot being created in certain period, reign or dynasty of any lot in this catalogue described by this term, and the authenticity warranty shall not be available with respect to lots described using this term. Discrepancy in the layout of information may appear between the catalogue description in English and its Chinese translation. We will use the English version of the catalogue description in deciding any issue or disputes which arise under the authenticity warranty or the ‘Qualified Headings’.

The date given for Chinese Books and Rubbings is the date (or approximate date when prefixed with ‘circa’) when the impression was printed or published.
CHINESE CLASSICAL PAINTINGS & CHINESE MODERN AND CONTEMPORARY INK PAINTINGS

Art Deco 1915-1935

WATCHES
Authenticity Certificates
As certain manufacturers may not issue certificates of authenticity, Christie’s has no obligation to furnish a buyer with a certificate of authenticity from the manufacturer, except where specifically noted in the catalogue. Unless Christie’s is satisfied that it should cancel the sale in accordance with the authenticity warranty, the failure of a manufacturer to issue a certificate will not constitute grounds for cancellation of the sale.
Removal of Watch Batteries
A lot marked with the symbol ⊕ in the catalogue incorporates batteries which may be designated as “dangerous goods” under international laws and regulations governing the transport of goods by air freight. If a buyer requests shipment of the lot to a destination outside of the region in which the saleroom is located, the batteries will be removed and retained prior to shipment. If the lot is collected from the saleroom, the batteries will be made available for collection free of charge.
CHINESE CERAMICS AND WORKS OF ART
In Christie’s opinion a work by the maker or artist e.g. A YIXING TEAPOT BY CHEN MINGYUAN
KANGXI PERIOD (1662-1722)
When a piece is, in Christie’s opinion, of a certain period, reign or dynasty, its attribution appears in uppercase letters directly below the heading of the description of the lot.
e.g. A BLUE AND WHITE BOWL
QING DYNASTY, 18TH CENTURY
If the date, period or reign mark mentioned in uppercase letters directly below the heading of the description of the lot states that the mark is of the period, then in Christie’s opinion, the piece is of the date, period or reign of the mark.
e.g. A BLUE AND WHITE BOWL
KANGXI SIX-CHARACTER MARK IN UNDERGLAZE BLUE AND OF THE PERIOD (1662-1722)
When a piece is, in Christie’s opinion, made no later than a certain period, reign or dynasty, its attribution appears in uppercase letters directly below the heading of the description of the lot and the term “AND EARLIER” appears.
e.g A JADE NECKLACE
LIANGZHU CULTURE AND EARLIER, CIRCA 3900-2300
BC
If no date, period or reign mark is mentioned in uppercase letters directly below the heading of the description of the lot , in Christie’s opinion it is of uncertain date or late manufacture.
e.g. A BLUE AND WHITE BOWL QUALIFIED HEADINGS
When a piece is, in Christie’s opinion, not of the period to which it would normally be attributed on stylistic grounds, this will be incorporated into the first line or the body of the text of the description.
e.g. A BLUE AND WHITE MING-STYLE BOWL
The Ming-style bowl is decorated with lotus scrolls… In Christie’s qualified opinion, this object could be dated to the Kangxi period but there is a strong element of doubt.
e.g. A BLUE AND WHITE BOWL
POSSIBLY KANGXI PERIOD
In Christie's opinion, this object is of a certain period, reign or dynasty. However, in Christie's qualified opinion, this object could belong to a particular culture but there is a strong element of doubt.
The condition of lots sold in our auctions can vary widely due to factors such as age, previous damage, restoration, repair and wear and tear. Condition reports and grades are provided free of charge as a courtesy and convenience to our buyers and are for guidance only. They offer our honest opinion but they may not refer to all faults, restoration, alteration or adaption. They are not an alternative to examining a lot in person or taking your own professional advice. Lots are sold “as is,” in the condition they are in at the time of the sale, without any representation or warranty as to condition by Christie’s or by the seller.
Grades in Condition Reports
We provide a general, numeric condition grade to help with overall condition guidance. Please review the specific condition report and extra images for each lot before bidding.
Grade 1: This item exhibits no signs of use or wear and could be considered as new. There are no flaws. Original packaging and protective plastic are likely intact as noted in the lot description.
Grade 2: This item exhibits minor flaws and could be considered nearly brand new. It may never have been used, or may have been used a few times. There are only minor condition notes, which can be found in the specific condition report.
Grade 3: This item exhibits visible signs of use. Any signs of use or wear are minor. This item is in good condition.
Grade 4: This item exhibits normal signs of wear from frequent use. This item either has light overall wear or small areas of heavy wear. The item is considered to be in fair condition.
Grade 5: This item exhibits wears and tear from regular or heavy use. The item is in usable condition but it does have condition notes.
Any reference to condition in a catalogue entry will not amount to a full description of condition, and images may not show the condition of a lot clearly. Colours and shades may look different in print or on screen to how they look in real life. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have received and considered any condition report and grading. We recommend you examine the lot in person or take your own professional advice.
REFERENCE TO “HARDWARE”
Where used in this catalogue the term “hardware” refers to the metallic parts of the bag, such as the buckle hardware, base studs, lock and keys and/or straps, which are plated with a coloured finish (e.g. gold, silver, palladium). The terms “Gold Hardware”, “Silver Hardware”, “Palladium Hardware” etc. refer to the stone or colour of the hardware and not the actual material used. If the bag incorporates solid metal hardware this will be referenced in the lot description.
WINES
OPTIONS TO BUY PARCELS
A parcel consists of several lots of the same wine of identical lot size, bottle size and description. Bidding will start on the first lot of the parcel and the successful buyer of that lot is entitled to take some or all of the remaining lots in the parcel at the same hammer price. If the buyer of the first lot does not take further lots, the remaining lots of the parcel will be offered in a similar fashion. We recommend that a bid on a parcel lot be placed on the first lot of the parcel. If the bid is superseded, Christie‘s will automatically move your bid to the next identical lot and so on. In all instances, such bids will be handled at the auctioneer’s discretion.
CLASSIFICATIONS
Bordeaux Classifications in the text are for identification purposes only and are based on the official 1855 classification of the Médoc and other standard sources. All wines are Château-bottled unless stated otherwise.
ULLAGES AND CORKS OF OLD WINES
Wines are described in this catalogue as correctly as can be ascertained at time of going to press, but buyers of old wines must make appropriate allowances for natural variations of ullages, conditions of cases, labels, corks and wine. No returns will be accepted.
ULLAGE
The amount by which the level of wine is short of being full: these levels may vary according to age of the wines and, as far as can be ascertained by inspection prior to the sale, are described in the catalogue. A chart explaining level and ullage descriptions and interpretations, together with a visual presentation, appears in this catalogue. We hope you will find this helpful.
